Hamta Village Snow Trek
Hampta, Himachal Pradesh
3 Days2 Nights
Event Overview
The trek to Hamta is a surreal and intimidating one due to the amount of snow that
accumulates during winter. Touching the pass remains a remote possibility. However,
you don’t need to go all the way to the top. You can indulge in snow hiking and
photography at an altitude of over 3000 m. Soak in the glorious view of the snow-
covered Dhauladhar and Pir Panjal ranges amidst a meadow brimmed with snow. It is
an altogether different world during winter and one which is a must see for all travel and
adventure enthusiasts.
